I’m not saying people are dumb. A lot of very smart engineers I work with BCC large DL’s and I send out a link to this blog post on a near weekly basis. Heck, I made the same mistake before somebody taught me. But getting back to your suggestion, the very nature of BCC is that the client is blind to the distribution list. If you were to “fix” rules so that they could do different things based on the contents of the BCC field, then you would in effect be breaking the promise of BCC. So there’s not really an engineering solution here. It starts with educating people and nudging their behaviors.

But wait. Why should be re-educate people of what they’ve been doing for decades? It is the rule creation that is not handling this generic practice, not the people performing their normal jobs. We should as the email application / server rule creation tool to remind this problem and properly handle this situation. Don’t treat people with old habit as dumb. It could be the modern tool that does not know of the old habit that is dumb.

We’re continuing to follow customer demand in this space and evaluate our ability to deliver something, but right now it’s not near the top of the backlog.
